Perú Archaeological Site Descriptions: A comprehensive listing of Peru’s archaeological complexes and monuments, including detailed descriptions, locations, entry fees, site museums and visitor restrictions. http://www.fertur-travel.com/ Copyright © 2009 - 2012 Fertur Peru Travel E.I.R.L. All Rights Reserved Much has changed since the original publication of this list of Peruvian ancient sites in 2009, with dozens of major archaeological discoveries. For up-to-date information, check our Peruvian Travel Trends blog. The purpose of publishing this map and description list was to help inform you about possible archaeological destinations to visit during your vacation to Peru. Many are on well known tourist circuits and are easily accessible. These include the sites along Peru’s northern coast Moche circuit, like Túcume, El Brujo and Huaca Cao, Huaca Rajada, Chan Chan and the Temples of the Sun and Moon. There are also the sites along the Nor Amazónico circuit, Kuélap, Revash, the Sarcophagi of Karajia and Lagoon of the Condors. Many others are common stops for a Cusco vacation: Sacsayhuaman Pisaq, Ollantaytambo, Tambomachay, Ollantaytambo, Choquequirao and the half dozen Inca archaeology sites accessible only via the Inca Trail en route to Machu Picchu. Others are lesser known, farther off the beaten path and it’s these destinations we hope you will become interested in and enquire about visiting to forge new routes. Our goal is to broaden and develop sustainable eco-tourism throughout Peru. If there are any archaeological sites missing from our list, or if you see an error that needs correcting, please let us know via our blog’s comment section.

Andesite (3 images) Article at Khan Academy Cusco, a city in the Peruvian Andes, was once capital of the Inca empire, and is now known for its archaeological remains and Spanish colonial architecture. Set at an altitude of 3,400m, it's the gateway to further Inca sites in the Urubamba (Sacred) Valley and the Inca Trail, a multiday trek that ends at the mountain citadel of Machu Picchu. Carbon-14 dating of Saksaywaman, the walled complex outside Cusco, has established that the Killke culture constructed the fortress about 1100 o The Inca later expanded and occupied the complex in the 13th century and after Function: 2008, archaeologists discovered the ruins of an ancient temple, roadway and aqueduct system at Saksaywaman.[11] The temple covers some 2,700 square feet (250 square meters) and contains 11 rooms thought to have held idols and mummies,[11] establishing its religious purpose. Together with the results of excavations in 2007, when another temple was found at the edge of the fortress, indicates there was longtime religious as well as military use of the facility, overturning previous conclusions about the site. Many believe that the city was planned as an effigy in the shape of a puma, a sacred animal. It is unknown how Cusco was specifically built, or how its large stones were quarried and transported to the site.

Through semistructured interviews in rural Peru with people affected by three infectious and noninfectious chronic conditions (type 2 diabetes, hypertension, and neurocysticercosis), their relatives, and focus group discussions with community members, we analyzed their perspectives on the value of food and the challenges of dietary changes due to medical diagnosis. The findings show the various ways in which people from rural northern Peru conceptualize good (buena alimentación) and bad (mala alimentación) food, and that food choices are based on life-long learning, experience, exposure, and availability. In the context of poverty, required changes are not only related to what people recognize as healthy food, such as fruits and vegetables, but also of work, family, trust, taste, as well as affordability and accessibility of foods.

Embracing the towering Andean Mountains, the parched Atacama Desert, and the Amazon jungle fringes, the Inca Imperium was the largest empire of antiquity ever to arise south of the equator or in the Western Hemisphere. It synthesized unique adaptations to acute environmental conditions that had precedents in earlier societies and states of the Cordillera. Many of these adjustments continue to sustain the hemisphere’s largest Native American populations. Consequently, ethnographies and ethnohistories of indigenous people capture fascinating cultural institutions that shaped the archaeological past. The seminar will explore both the successes of Andean people and the failures of human development induced by natural disasters. CLASS STRUCTURE In addition to opening presentations, weekly classes will have student commentary and discussion of assigned readings. There will be oral assessments of how the readings articulate with seminar topics. Drawing upon the readings, each participant will bring to class a ~2 page short synopsis of questions and issues for discussion. The weekly briefs are important because they will guide the seminar’s considerations. They will be graded as will oral participation. Attendance is required. WEEKLY READINGS Seminar participants will be assigned weekly reading that form core discussion issues.

One native group from this area, in particular, the Quechua, is the focus of this paper. The Quechua communities include Huanca, Chanka, Q’ero, Taquile, and Amantani, but, for the purposes of my analysis, all of these groups will be dealt with together as they share similar use of natural resources for food and medicine (Wilson, 1999).
